Just to note this was tested with the latest light-themes trunk where this issue exists along with a few others like dragged files being white & some indicator menus being white.
Mentioning because I happened to file after returning to a self modified ambiance as seen in description which has no bearing here
(actually the self modded works almost perfectly except for this bug & white dragged files..

Don't quite see how this is a dupe of Bug 1000545, the issue is seen in the current light-themes trunk which shows 'fix committed' in that report

Tried with the Adwaita theme & combo boxes are fine, so only light-themes is affected here
